Wallstrip…The 'Julie' Reaction

I have been watching the comments regarding Julie’s new hosting gig for Wallstrip. I would say 90 percent positve including the emails to me and the site.

The one negative, it was the exact same with Lindsay’s reign on the show…she has little knowledge or knows nothing about the stock market.

To which I say in a word ‘BULLSHIT’. The more things change, the more they remain the same in the financial world. If you wear a suit and went to business school, or worked as a biz journalist, only than are you allowed to host a stock show.

Lindsay might have known little about stocks when she started, but I can tell all of you, knows more than most now. She understands that stocks go up and now she knows that stocks go down. She knows that there is a ton of noise and misdirection. Most importantly though, at least for me, she INVESTS. She would never have had the courage to invest on her own before the show. Lindsay converted many other newbies as well.

I guess it’s more important to have been in the stock business all your life so you can make idiotic stock picks like Cramer did here back in 2007. I wonder if he ‘manned up’ and settled his bet with the ‘Admiral’ Eric Bolling a good guy by the way and smart (Fast Money’s loss):

Wallstrip is about ideas and community, not screaming and buys and sells. I will take 100 Julie’s for Wallstrip.
